I like cottage cheese, why is it so hated ?



Recommended Posts

i dont get why people hate cottage cheese so much like its actually good, or are my tastebuds gone bad??, there's so much you can do with it too.

I’m not sure either. I will say some brands are terrible-maybe that’s why?! We have whipped cottage cheese here from a local dairy and it’s amazing! Like you said, you can make lots of things with it too!

I used to absolutely love it. Now, since my bypass, it tastes sour and rotten to me. Even when I try different brands, it just doesn't taste good. HOWEVER, I never used to be a fan of hummus, but now I absolutely LOVE it. Again, my taste buds changed. Super weird lol

There's only one brand in the UK that tastes good to me - Longley's .Funnily enough it's the only brand our dogs will eat too !!

I love it! The one weird long lasting effect I’ve had from COVID is that yogurt tastes metallic to me. Doesn’t matter the brand or flavor, it all tastes weird. I’ve substituted cottage cheese for my former favorite snack. Nearly daily i have a serving of it topped with berries and a few walnuts. Yum!

I'm a fan. It's a staple Breakfast for me post VSG. I like it plain and I often eat it that way. Sometimes I sprinkle black pepper on it (weird, I know.) I like it with fruit, too---the pineapple with tajin sounds awesome so I'll have to try that, but my favorites are with strawberries, or with blueberries and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Yum.

nope not weird (at least for. me, lol).

i actually prefer my cottage cheese savory vs sweet (so i'll add black pepper, salt, cayenne, garlic powder, and yes, i'll even top with anchovies, capers, bacon crumble, nuts, etc...)

don't judge me, lol

I used to hate it, but I realized there's a lot of difference between different brands. Some do taste like plastic, but I really like Mayfield 4% (yeah I know its too much fat) and Daisy 2%, which is now my go-to. They both seem really savory and pretty filling after surgery.

I also recommend whipping it, like others have mentioned. I use an immersion blender or a single serving smoothie blender to whip it, and make dips out of it. My family hates cottage cheese, but they will eat it whipped with some seasoning over chicken.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
